Hockey Hall of Fame
On any day, Toronto teems with artistic expression, from worldrenowned galleries and museums such as the ROM and the AGO, to evenings with the National Ballet and the Canadian Opera Company, both freshly nestled into their new home. Make a date with Mozart, Mendelssohn and the Toronto Symphony at Roy Thomson Hall, rediscover a favourite folk icon in the intimacy of critically acclaimed Hugh’s Room, or cool off with hot jazz at Massey Hall. Toronto’s Theatre District, London’s West End and Broadway in New York comprise the world’s most active theatre scene; Mirvish’s Royal Alexandra and Princess of Wales Theatres, among others, are the portals into this theatrical world. CanStage’s Bluma Appel Theatre, Buddies in Bad Times’ edgy, gay-inspired work, or the comedy institution at Second City also provide perfect après dinner aperitifs. Or consider taking in a photography exhibition at the Stephen Bulger Gallery or view Michael Snow’s latest work at the Christopher Cutts Gallery.
